Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate single nucleotide variants (SNVs) n.-411A > G (rs57095329) and n.60 G > C (rs2910164) in microRNA (miR)-146a, related to suppressing of TRAF6 with risk for epilepsy, as well as miR-146a and TRAF6 levels. METHODS: DNAs were extracted from epileptogenic tissues and blood leukocytes from drug-resistant epilepsy patients and healthy-individuals, respectively. Genotypes...
